with Suh and that coach is worse. A good season on another team and
stay away from the media and Titus
can fix his name

Tue, 05 Feb 2013 02:52:10 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=1707053#comment-2317527Let’s be clear of a few things. Nate Burleson pulled this kid aside on multiple occasions but couldn’t get through to him most of the time. He ran the wrong routes intentionally. He didn’t play hard all the time ala Randy Moss minus the talent. He punched the starting safety in the face during practice and got sent home. I would love Minnesota to take a shot at him because it would get your coach fired and start another rebuilding campaign. Good luck with that.

Rams – Jeff Fischer has no qualms about character issues.
Pats – Darth Bill has molded many young apprentices.
Raiders – Why not? He is fast.

Tue, 05 Feb 2013 01:59:49 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=1707053#comment-2317426If he could only muster a handful of games playing with Stafford & Calvin why would anyone else want him. Maybe a coach that wants to prove he can tame him, like Billy B? Hes quick and has good hands, but he’s not a burner, he’s way undersized and he thinks he’s a hof’er. Not worth it.

Tue, 05 Feb 2013 01:45:41 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=1707053#comment-2317388mcrod00. Given too many chances at Boise ? Coach Pete sat him for a year. Forbid him to open his mouth to the media for another year. Thinking maybe that’s where Detroit needed to take him. No one is bigger than the system at Boise. Young definitely is troubled.. Schwartz should have followed Pete’s lead.

KC, then Browns, Raiders, Eagles and so on….and any of you think he’ll make it to the a 10-6 team, a playoff team or the runner up in the SB? Give me a break….

Tue, 05 Feb 2013 01:14:53 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=1707053#comment-2317330I can’t recall hearing about a guy who intentionally lined up in the wrong spot because he wanted to get the ball ever. It even sounds stupid. “Stafford won’t notice that I’m not Calvin.” You can’t fix this brand of stupid. Those of recommending a change of scenery to repair sabotaging your team and acting like an assclown to your teammates are nearly as stupid as Young.

Tue, 05 Feb 2013 01:08:22 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=1707053#comment-2317324I truly do not care what his future is, however I am surprised that nobody suggested a trial with The Pats. They seemingly have the kind of coach and veterans who could and would snap this turd into the right frame of mind, OR drop him like a bad habit. They also get him on the cheap. I am NOT a Pats fan, however under this tight environment, it just might work. Any thoughts on this possibility?

Tue, 05 Feb 2013 00:58:15 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=1707053#comment-2317314I do not believe that this guy will be on a roster next season. Attitude and football issues make him forgettable.

The Jets have their “stuff” together, this guy would thrive in a strong locker room like the Jets’ locker room??

I hope you’re joking. The jets are pathetic and are no where close to having their “stuff” together.

Mon, 04 Feb 2013 23:13:38 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=1707053#comment-2317149Brash, volatile, smug and arrogant with streaks of bizarre behavior and delusional ideations but with lots of talent, Titus Young deserves to be claimed by the worst team in the league and fester for awhile. What a pisser it would be for the Lions if he were claimed by a competent organization with strong coaching and dominant veterans that forced him to grow up and reach his potential. Though most signs suggest that his mental defects will drag him down the drain, Lion’s luck indicates that the dude will become a star elsewhere. The Lions were dumb to draft him, we’re justified in dumping him but that Lion karma…Things just never work out here.

The Lions seemingly go out and find every character-risk they can, thus their team has plenty of fools like Titus here. At least they did the smart thing in getting rid of him.
